COMPAW is a Custom Accessories Manufacturers, Factory for the rehabilitation and accessible mobility industry. We design, tool and produce the accessory layer that keeps wheelchairs, stair-climbing chairs and front-mounted power attachments working in hospitals, care homes, rental fleets and private homes. Two accessory families are made in-house — wheelchair accessories and electric handcycle attachment accessories — alongside our SlimTough, NeoPath, Zepath, ProPath and OmniPath power assist heads, stair-climbing wheelchairs, multi-functional wheelchairs and smart home equipment.
What we build on: 25 years of manufacturing experience, a 50,000㎡ factory in Suzhou, more than 300 employees and a 100-ton production capacity — the same base that carries our complete mobility platforms, so accessories are produced to the same engineering and quality route as the machines they serve.
Accessory Families We Supply
Accessories are not a sideline in our range. They define whether a chair stays in service, whether a fleet can be kept running without replacing whole units, and whether a new chair or attachment reaches market with a complete, serviceable part set. Our engineering team works from the platform outward: the accessory is defined by the interface it must meet, the load it must carry and the environment it must survive.
Wheelchair Accessories
Work for manual, companion-push and electric wheelchairs covers the parts that touch the frame, the ground and the user: mounting brackets and adapters, quick-release and clamp interfaces, positioning and comfort components, protective parts and the wear items replaced during normal service life. Geometry is locked first, because these parts share interfaces with the chair — tube diameter, clamp width, hole pitch, handedness and clearance to wheels, footrests and folding mechanism all have to agree before tooling starts. See our China Wheelchair Accessories Manufacturers range for the standard fittings that support manual, companion-push and electric chairs.
Electric Handcycle Attachment Accessories
For our front-mounted power attachment platform — the same drive family used across the China Power Trike Wheelchair Attachment Manufacturers series — accessories support the docking interface, the control side and the power side of the unit, plus replacement wear parts. Spares must match the generation of the attachment: mounting plate geometry, connector type, control layout and battery or charger interface are verified against the model or serial before production. Our China Electric Handcycle Attachment Accessories Manufacturers line is where these interface and service parts are standardised.
Application Fit Across Care and Channel Scenarios
- Hospital rehabilitation departments and clinics: replacement interfaces, positioning components and wear parts that keep shared equipment available.
- Nursing homes and home care: protective parts, comfort components and consumables stocked against daily use and heavier attendants' handling.
- Rental and community programmes: serviceable accessories supported by our equipment management backend, covering status monitoring, fault alerts and remote locking.
- Distributors, elderly-care suppliers and cross-border e-commerce: retail-ready packaging, private-label marking, multilingual documentation and spare-part kits sized for local service.
- OEM partners: accessories developed into a new chair or attachment during the product definition phase, using modular solutions to keep tooling and variants manageable.
Materials and Critical Specifications
Material selection follows the load case and the environment, not a single default. An adapter bracket, a positioning pad and a battery-side connector have completely different duty, so they are specified separately and recorded in the drawing set approved for the order.
- Structural parts: alloy tube or plate, or steel where the load case requires it, with surface treatment chosen for indoor clinical use or outdoor and humid exposure.
- Fasteners and threads: grade and material matched to clamp load; stainless grades where washing, humidity or outdoor storage apply.
- Interface geometry: tube diameter, clamp width, hole pattern, offset, handedness and the folded or transported envelope.
- Load path: rated load and safety factor defined by function — a structural adapter carries a different case from a cover, pad or trim part.
- Electrical accessories: voltage, capacity, connector standard, charge current and protection behaviour must match the drive unit they serve.
- Finish and appearance: colour, texture and logo placement must work in the clinical channel as well as on a retail shelf.

Configuration and OEM/ODM Customisation
Our OEM/ODM route covers functional parameters, appearance design and interaction logic, from market concept to mass production. Technical teams join the product definition phase and work with modular solutions, so a specific mounting adaptation, a drive-system interface or a variant reserved for home-based elderly care can be added without rebuilding the whole accessory family. Accessories can be delivered as private-label items, as service kits, or as an integrated part set launched with a new chair or power attachment.
Quality Control and Acceptance
Accessories run through the same full-process quality control as our complete machines, under international manufacturing standards; production scale keeps geometry and finish consistent between the first shipment and repeat orders. Our products are certified for the EU and North American markets, and the compliance file for each accessory is aligned to the platform it serves.
- First-article dimensional approval against the approved drawing.
- Fit trial on the matched wheelchair or power attachment before batch release.
- Functional checks on moving and locking components, including repeated operation.
- Finish, marking and label verification for the target channel.
- Final pre-packing inspection with batch records retained for traceability.
Installation, Commissioning and Operator Safety
Accessories are designed for bolt-on field installation with hand tools, so a distributor or a facility technician can complete replacement without returning the chair to a workshop. Every kit is issued with the reference it fits, the fasteners required, torque values and a torque sequence where more than one fixing shares the load.
- Clearance verification through the full fold, rotate and loading range, keeping cables clear of pinch points.
- Thread locking and fastener retention called out per joint, with serviceable fasteners instead of one-way fixings.
- Functional check with and without load after installation, including locking and release behaviour.
- User and caregiver instructions with warning labels; operator training available for institutional customers.
Information We Use to Configure Your Solution
A configuration and quotation are prepared quickly when the following are supplied with the enquiry. Where a sample or a photograph with dimensions is available, we confirm the interface directly rather than working from a description.
- Platform model, generation and, where relevant, serial range the accessory must fit.
- Interface dimensions, drawing, sample part or photographs with a scale reference.
- Function of the accessory and the load it must carry, including attendant or bariatric use.
- Required material, surface finish, colour and logo placement.
- Annual volume, first-order quantity, pack size and bulk or retail packaging.
- Labelling, barcode requirements and documentation language versions.
- Destination market and the compliance framework that applies.
- Delivery address, commercial terms and any packaging or marking requirements.
Packaging, Documentation, Maintenance and Service
Accessories ship in bulk cartons or retail-ready packs with part numbers carried through labelling and batch records. Orders are supported by multilingual technical documentation, installation sheets and online troubleshooting guides. Rapid spare-parts supply, remote fault diagnosis and on-site maintenance support are available for care institutions, rental operators and channel customers building their own service capability. We design wear items to be replaced with hand tools while the chair stays in service, and we keep spare-part definitions stable so distributors can hold meaningful local stock.
Pre-sales solution design, in-sales technical support and after-sales operation guidance are handled by one team, with logistics, customs and compliance experience across the EU, North America and Middle East markets. More than 70% of our output is exported, and repeat orders are configured against the original drawing and batch record.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which accessory families does COMPAW manufacture?
Two: wheelchair accessories for manual, companion-push and electric chairs, and electric handcycle attachment accessories covering docking, control-side, power-side and service parts for our power assist head series.
Can accessories be customised for our own model or brand?
Yes. OEM/ODM covers functional parameters, appearance and interaction logic, with private-label marking and packaging. Modular design keeps tooling effort proportionate when only the mounting interface changes.
How do you confirm an accessory will fit an existing wheelchair?
We work from the platform model, generation and interface dimensions, and prefer a drawing, sample part or scaled photographs. The first article is then fitted to the matched platform before the batch is released.
What documentation is supplied with an accessory order?
Installation sheets, torque and service information, part numbers and batch traceability, plus multilingual technical documentation and troubleshooting guides for channel and institutional customers.
How are spare parts handled after delivery?
Spare parts are defined as stable, orderable items with the same part numbers as the original delivery. We support rapid spare-parts supply, remote diagnosis and on-site maintenance for institutional and rental operators.
